Games that are best enjoyed with a notepad often involve some mystery, or require drawing strange symbols or shapes that can't be quickly or easily replicated on your PC. They might involve hurried arithmetic, amateurish maps, doodled floorplans, scatter-brained lists. In these cases it transpires that the giant machine whirring three inches from your nose just won't cut it. Sometimes you gotta use a pencil.

The Naga Trinity's key feature is that it comes with three interchangeable side panels, each with a different amount of layout of buttons - so you can have a regular two-button side layout for FPS titles, a seven-button layout for more complex games (MOBAs?) and a 12-button calculator-style layout when things get properly exciting (MMOs). Or you can just figure out which one is your favourite, and keep it on forever more. </p> <p>The Naga Trinity's UK RRP is £110, but it normally goes for about £70 or £80.

For its street price of £110, you get a compact yet easy to build in design with a choice of mesh or glass side panels, plus a pair of low profile 120mm fans. Today however, you can pick up this brilliant little case for £76 in black or white, or £85 to £96 for colours like orange, purple, teal and pink. Either way you slice it, this is an incredible case for the money - and I should know, I've got two of them in my room right now. </p> </div> </div> </article> </li> <li> <article class="summary" data-type="article" data-article-type="news" data-premium="false" data-size="default"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003/https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/hard-west-2s-open-beta-is-live-and-runs-for-the-next-month" class="link_overlay" title="Hard West 2's open beta is live and runs for the next month"></a> <span class="symbol"></span> <div class="thumbnail"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003im_/https://assets2.rockpapershotgun.com/hard-west-2-header.jpg/BROK/thumbnail/690x388/format/jpg/quality/80/hard-west-2-header.jpg" srcset="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003im_/https://assets2.rockpapershotgun.com/hard-west-2-header.jpg/BROK/thumbnail/690x388/format/jpg/quality/80/hard-west-2-header.jpg 1x, https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003im_/https://assets2.rockpapershotgun.com/hard-west-2-header.jpg/BROK/thumbnail/1380x776/format/jpg/quality/80/hard-west-2-header.jpg 2x" loading="lazy" class="thumbnail_image" alt="A screenshot of Hard West 2 showing some cowboys on horses chasing after a train at night." width="690" height="388"> </div> <div class="wrapper"> <div class="details"> <p class="title"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003/https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/hard-west-2s-open-beta-is-live-and-runs-for-the-next-month"> Hard West 2's open beta is live and runs for the next month </a> </p> <p class="strapline">A supernatural wes-turn</p> </div> <div class="metadata"> <span class="author">Graham Smith</span> <time class="published_at" datetime="2022-05-05 22:12:01.757116+00:00"> 1 day ago </time> <p class="comments"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003/https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/hard-west-2s-open-beta-is-live-and-runs-for-the-next-month#comments"> 1 </a> </p> </div> <div class="excerpt"> <p>Rootin' tootin' turn-based-strategin' <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003/https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/games/hard-west-2">Hard West 2</a> combines the shoot percentages of XCOM with a cowboy odyssey to retrieve your lost souls.

Like a seasoned ronin, the combat is clean and refined. The story is simple and elegant. The visuals are straight out of a classic samurai flick. But while it gets a lot of things right, it's also a literal trek to the underworld: the scenery is stunning, but your legs hurt, and your arms ache from killing all the bandits. So many bandits! The lack of enemy variety hurts what could've been a sensational hike - but it's still a trek worth embarking on if you break it up with a few pitstops.</p> </div> </div> </article> </li> <li> <article class="summary" data-type="article" data-article-type="news" data-premium="false" data-size="default"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003/https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/new-york-city-sue-activision-blizzard-demand-to-see-company-records" class="link_overlay" title="New York City sue Activision Blizzard, demand to see company records"></a> <span class="symbol"></span> <div class="thumbnail"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003im_/https://assets2.rockpapershotgun.com/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-soap.jpg/BROK/thumbnail/690x388/format/jpg/quality/80/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-soap.jpg" srcset="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003im_/https://assets2.rockpapershotgun.com/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-soap.jpg/BROK/thumbnail/690x388/format/jpg/quality/80/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-soap.jpg 1x, https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003im_/https://assets2.rockpapershotgun.com/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-soap.jpg/BROK/thumbnail/1380x776/format/jpg/quality/80/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-soap.jpg 2x" loading="lazy" class="thumbnail_image" alt="Captain Price in Call Of Duty Modern Warfare" width="690" height="388"> </div> <div class="wrapper"> <div class="details"> <p class="title"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003/https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/new-york-city-sue-activision-blizzard-demand-to-see-company-records"> New York City sue Activision Blizzard, demand to see company records </a> </p> <p class="strapline">They claim Bobby Kotick was "unfit" to negotiate the deal with Microsoft</p> </div> <div class="metadata"> <span class="author">CJ Wheeler</span> <time class="published_at" datetime="2022-05-05 12:27:00.893337+00:00"> 1 day ago </time> <p class="comments"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003/https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/new-york-city-sue-activision-blizzard-demand-to-see-company-records#comments"> 9 </a> </p> </div> <div class="excerpt"> <p> Some <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003/https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/companies/activision-blizzard">Activision Blizzard</a> shareholders want to rake through the company’s records to investigate whether CEO Bobby Kotick pushed through the takeover by Microsoft to prevent himself being found liable for alleged misconduct, according to a recently filed <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220507084003/https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/21864041/new-york-activision-complaint.pdf">complaint</a>.
